        Installation
  This Manual introduces the basic steps how to install and set up AlphaESS Storion-SMILE5.
  SMILE5-BAT is a sealed component with no access to battery terminals or cell components within the
  module.
  SMILE5-BAT contains a Bi-pole DC isolator, which conforms to IEC 60947. It has been operated in all
  live conductors

     NOTE: please pay attention for unpacking the battery, otherwise components could be
  damaged.

  2.1 Installation Site and Environment
  2.1.1         General
  This SMILE5 energy storage system is outdoor version and can be installed in an outdoor or an indoor
  location.
  When SMILE5 systems are installed in a room, SMILE5 must not be hampered by the structure of the
  building, the furnishings and equipment of the room.
  The Storion SMILE5 is naturally ventilated. The location should therefore be clean, dry and adequately
  ventilated. The mounting location must allow free access to the unit for installation and maintenance
  purposes, and the system panels must not be blocked.
  The following location are not allowed for installation:
          •    habitable rooms;
          •    ceiling cavities or wall cavities;
          •    on roofs that are not specifically considered suitable;
          •    access / exit areas or under stairs / access walkways;
          •    where the freezing point can be reached, such as garages, carports or other places as well
               as wet rooms (environmental category 2);
          •    locations with humidity and condensation over 85%;
          •    places where salty and humid air can penetrate;
          •    seismic areas - additional security measures are required;
          •    sites higher than 3000 meters above sea level;
          •    places with an explosive atmosphere;
          •    locations with direct sunlight or a large change in the ambient temperature;
          •    places with flammable materials or gases or an explosive atmosphere.

  2.1.2         Restricted Locations
  The SMILE5 shall not be installed —
  (a)       in restricted locations as defined for panels in AS / NZS 3000;
  (b)    within 600 mm of any heat source, such as hot water unit, gas heater, air conditioning unit or
  any other appliance.
  (c)       within 600 mm of any exit;
  (d)       within 600 mm of any window or ventilation opening;
  (e)       within 900 mm of access to 240 Vac connections; and
  (f)       within 600 mm of side of other device.

Installation                    Your Smart Energy

A SMILE5 installed in any corridor, hallway, lobby or the like and leading to an emergency exit shall
ensure sufficient clearance for safe egress of at least 1 meter.
The SMILE5 must also not be installed in potentially explosive atmospheres for gas cylinders that are
heavier than air gases and have a vent clamp in accordance with AS / NZS 3000.

2.1.3       Barrier to habitable rooms
To protect against the spread of fire in living spaces where the SMILE5 is mounted or on surfaces of a
wall or structure in living spaces with a SMILE5 on the other side, the wall or structure shall have a
suitable non-combustible barrier. If the mounting surface itself is not made of a suitable non-
combustible material, a non-combustible barrier can be placed between the SMILE5 and the surface
of a wall or structure.
If the SMILE5 is mounted at a wall or at a distance of 300 mm from the wall or structure separating it
from the habitable space, the distances to other structures or objects must be increased. The following
distances must then remain free:

 (i)     600 mm beside the SMILE5;
 (ii)    1200 mm above the SMILE5; and
 (iii)   600 mm before the SMILE5.
 If the distance between the Storion SMILE5 and
 the ceiling or any object above the system is
 less than 1200 mm, the ceiling or structural
 surface above the system must be made of non-
 combustible material within a radius of 600 mm
 around the system.
 The SMILE5 must be mounted so that the
 highest point is not more than 2.2 m above the
 ground or the platform.

More information can be found in SMILE5-BAT user manual.

3.3 Emergency Procedure
When the SMILE5 energy storage system appears to be running abnormally you can turn off the grid
connected main switch directly feeding the BESS and turn off all load switches within the BESS, turn
off the battery switch at the same time. To prevent a potentially fatal personal injury, if you want to
repair or open the machine after the power is switched off please measure the voltage at the input
terminals with a suitably calibrated voltage tester.
Before working on this equipment, please confirm that there is no grid electric supply to the BESS!
The upper cover plate cannot be opened until the DC-link capacitance inside the battery modules
discharges completely about 15 minutes later.

3.3.1        Emergency Handling Plan
1. Disconnect the AC breaker.
2. Check the control power supply. If it is OK, return the power supply to find out the reason.
3. Please record every detail related to the fault, so AlphaESS can analyse and solve the fault. Any
operation of equipment during a fault is strictly forbidden, please contact Alpha as soon as possible.
4. As battery cells contains a little Oxygen inside and all cells have got explosion-proof valves,
explosion hardly happens.
5. When the indicator light on the battery shows a red fault, check the fault type through the
communication protocol, and contact our after-sales service personnel for advice.

3.3.2        Hazards
If the battery pack leaks electrolyte, avoid contact with the leaking liquid or gas. If one is exposed to
the leaked substance, immediately perform the actions described below:
Inhalation: Evacuate the contaminated area, and seek medical attention.
Eye contact: Rinse eyes with running water for 5 minutes, and seek medical attention.
Contact with skin: Wash the affected area thoroughly with soap and water, and seek medical attention.
Ingestion: Induce vomiting and seek medical attention.

3.3.3        Fire
If a fire breaks out in the place where the battery pack is installed, perform the following
countermeasures:

Fire extinguishing media
During normal operation no respirator is required. Burning batteries can not be extinguished with a
regular fire extinguisher, this requires special fire extinguishers such as the Novec 1230, the FM-200
or a dioxin extinguisher. If the fire is not from a battery, normal ABC fire extinguishers can be used for
extinguishing.

  Fire -fighting instructions
  1. If fire occurs when charging batteries, if it is safe to do so, disconnect the battery pack circuit
  breaker to shut off the power to charge.
  2. If the battery pack is not on fire yet, extinguish the fire before the battery pack catches fire.
  3. If the battery pack is on fire, do not try to extinguish but evacuate people immediately.

      There may be a possible explosion when batteries are heated above 150°C. When the battery
  pack is burning, it leaks poisonous gases. Do not approach.

  Effective ways to deal with accidents
  Battery in dry environment: Place damaged battery into a segregated place and call local fire
  department or service engineer.
  Battery in wet environment: Stay out of the water and don’t touch anything if any part of the battery,
  inverter, or wiring is submerged.
  Do not use a submerged battery again and contact the service engineer.
